Carillon Park owes its existence to the generosity of Col. and Mrs. Edward A. Deeds. The carillon, built of granite, steel, and limestone, reaches skyward for an impressive 151 feet. Mrs. Deeds gave the carillon, and it was dedicated August 23, 1942, following its completion. Col. Deeds provided for the creation of a park museum containing exhibits relating to Dayton and the development of transportation. The sixty-five acre park is administered by Education and Musical Arts, Incorporated, a subsidiary of the Dayton Foundation.
